10.1 Groups
Definitions • A mathematical system consists of a set of elements and at least one binary operation. • A binary operation is an operation, or rule, that can be performed on two and only two elements of a set.
For elements a, b, and c Addition Multiplication Commutative property a + b = b + a ab = ba Associate property (a + b) + c = a + (b + c) (ab)c = a(bc) Properties
Closure • If a binary operation is performed on any two elements of a set and the result is an element of the set, then that set is closed (or has closure) under the given binary operation.
Identity Element • An identity element is an element in a set such that when a binary operation is performed on it and any given element in the set, the result is the given element. • Additive identity element is 0. • Multiplicative identity element is 1.
Inverses • When a binary operation is performed on two elements in a set and the result is the identity element for the binary operation, each element is said to be the inverse of the other.
Properties of a Group • Any mathematical system that meets the following four requirements is called a group. • The set of elements is closed under the given operation. • An identity element exists for the set under the given operation. • Every element in the set has an inverse under the given operation. • The set of elements is associative under the given operation.
Commutative Group • A group that satisfies the commutative property is called a commutative group or (abelian group).
Properties of a Commutative Group • A mathematical system is a commutative group if all five conditions hold. • The set of elements is closed under the given operation. • An identity element exists for the set under the given operation. • Every element in the set has an inverse under the given operation. • The set of elements is associative under the given operation. • The set of elements is commutative under the given conditions.
10.2 Finite Mathematical Systems
Definition • A finite mathematical system is one whose set contains a finite number of elements. • Example: Determine whether the clock arithmetic system under the operation of addition is a commutative group.
Definition continued • Closure: The set of elements in clock arithmetic is closed under the operation of addition. • Identity: There is an additive identity element, namely 12. • Inverse elements: Each element in the set has an inverse. • Associative property: The system is associative under the operation of addition. • Commutative property: The commutative property of addition is true for clock arithmetic. • The system satisfies the five properties required for a mathematical system. Thus, clock arithmetic under the operation of addition is a commutative or abelian group.
10.3 Modular Arithmetic
Definition • A modulo m system consists of m elements, 0 through m 1, and a binary operation. • a is congruent to b modulo m, written a b(mod m), if a and b have the same remainder when divided by m.
Example • Determine which number from 0 to 7, the following numbers are congruent to in modulo 8. • a) 66 b) 72 c) 109
remainder Solution: a) 66 • To determine the value 66 is congruent to in mod 8, divide 66 by 8 and find the remainder. Thus, 66 2 (mod 8)
b) 72 72 ? (mod 8) 72 8 = 9, remainder 0 72 0 (mod 8) c) 109 109 ? (mod 8) 109 8 = 13, remainder 5 109 5 (mod 8) Solutions continued
Example • Evaluate each in mod 6. • a) 4 + 2 b) 3 2 c) 2(4) • a) 4 + 2 ? (mod 6) 6 ? (mod 6) 6 6 = 1, remainder 0. Therefore, 4 + 2 0 (mod 6)
b) 3 2 3 2 ? (mod 6) 1 ? (mod 6) 1 1 (mod 6) c) 4(2) 4(2) ? (mod 6) 8 ? (mod 6) 8 6 = 1, remainder 2. Therefore, 4(2) 2 (mod 6) Example continued
a) 4 • ? 3(mod 5) One method is to replace the ? mark with the numbers. 4 • 0 0(mod 5) 4 • 1 4(mod 5) 4 • 2 3(mod 5) 4 • 3 2(mod 5) 4 • 4 1(mod 5) Therefore, ? = 2 since 4 • 2 3(mod 5). b) 3 • ? 0(mod 5) 3 • 0 0(mod 5) 3 • 1 3(mod 5) 3 • 2 0(mod 5) 3 • 3 3(mod 5) 3 • 4 0(mod 5) 3 • 5 3(mod 5) Therefore, the 0, 2 and 4 result in true statements. Find all replacements for the question mark that make the statements true.
